Lazlo on Windows Keys

Right. So you know what's not funny? Those damn Windows keys. I hate them. Oh, sure, I imagine they're convenient for the newbie "Power User" who didn't grow up using the CTRL and ALT keys every 30 seconds, but for those of us who like to fire up a game of Commander Keen 4 once in awhile, they're a freakin' nuissance.
Why, you may ask, do I bring this up?
Because when I sat down in front of my computer tonight, I accidentally went to ggle.cm. There's not really a ggle.cm, but that's where Internet Explorer tried to take me. "Aha," I thought, "I've accidentally pressed one of those Windows keys!" Generally when this happens, I remedy the situation by hitting the windows keys a bunch of times, but tonight it was to no avail. So I restarted the PC. The letter o still didn't work. I'm angry now. A few more possibilities and a cold boot later, the o key is finally working again.
I guess this whole story has nothing to do with the Windows keys. Screw it. I still hate them.
